Indeed, I do disagree with your conclusion that this does harm. >> I imagine you'd say the same about creating bug reports in bugzilla? >> > Exactly. Some bugs don't get reported because of that.

A bug report (especially the first or second one) typically requires some additional information from the reporter. If the reporter has not given us a way to get in contact, then the bug report is all too often useless. I'd prefer to have useful bug reports which the reporter can then see addressed, rather than useless reports which we have no option but to ignore. > That's misunderstanding.

This is the bit I disagree with :) Cheers, Dave. -- maemo.org docsmaster Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
